I added Australian Gourmet thinking it was Gourmet by mistake.  I do I delete it from my bookshelf?

There's a delete option: a gray shaded cross on the right of the title line.. click  on that and you'll remove it... BUT Australian Gourmet do post most of their recipes up on line : around 90% of the recipes in each issue has a photo and the recipe.. so you may find you like it!!

Thank you!  That x seems to remove that particular month only?  How would I remove the whole subscription ie past, current and future?

You unsubscribe from a magazine by clicking "Remove" next to Subscribed, under the cover image on the details page.

I must be blind.  I still don't see how to unsubscribe completely.  I don't see the unsubscribe.

Try this:


Click on the title of the magazine in the Magazines list.


That should opens a new page with the magazine details.


Look under the picture on the right hand side of the screen.


There's a button that says "remove" if you HAVE actually subscribed (on EYB not in real life)  to the magazine. Click remove and it will go.


If you haven't "subscribed" to the magazine (on EYB not in real world) you won't see that button. In that case you just tick the grey cross to remove on the main magazines list (your first magazines page when you click that tab on 'my bookshelf)...

I think some of the confusion may lie in realizing what exactly it means to "subscribe" to a magazine on EYB -- if you have elected to "subscribe" to say Food & Wine on EYB, you were given the option to automatically add future issues of that magazine to your EYB bookshelf and also to add past issues for a specific time period -- so say I have every issue for the past 2 years, I would plug in the dates and then they would have been added all at once, eliminating the need for me to page through the library and add each issue individually.


If you had selected 'Automatically add future editions to my Bookshelf,' only then will the option to "remove" be listed underneath  the magazine's cover and the header "Subscribe to this magazine". If you have not subscribed, there is only a "Subscribe" button -- if you were to click on that, it gives you the options I described above. Whether or not you are subscribed to a magazine on EYB, if you wish to remove issues already on your shelf, you need to remove them manually because unsubscribing on EYB only stops future issues from being added to your shelf, it does not affect issues already on your shelf. 


So if you are trying to remove all the Australian Gourmet Traveller issues from your shelf, the easiest way I can recommend is to search for "Australian Gourmet Traveller" on the magazine tab of your bookshelf and then click on the condensed view (shown in the image below) which shows up to 200 issues per page of search results. Then you can just click on the "x"s all the way down the page on the right-hand side and quickly delete them all.

That's probably more information than you were even looking for, but I hope it helps clear things up!

Thank you, that did the trick.  I did not realize I had to delete each one.  Thank you everyone!
